Movieola is a collection of linked short stories that delights and
exploits the language and paraphernalia of industrial Hollywood.
The collection delves into a night at the movies, featuring all the
familiar types -- the rom-com, the action-adventure, the superhero
and the spy -- but the narratives are still under construction, and
every story line is an opportunity for the unimaginable twist.
Motive and identity are constantly shifting in these short stories
that offer both narrative and anti-narrative, while the stunted
shoptalk of the movie business struggles to keep up. With the wit
of Steve Erickson's Zeroville and the inventive spirit of Italo
Calvino's Cosmicomics, John Domini offers a collection at once
comical and moving, carefully suspended between a game of language
and a celebration of American film.
